Risk Stratification Using Cardiac Imaging: A Comprehensive Review
There are numerous cardiac imaging modalities which aid in the diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease (CAD). Each modality has variable efficacy in detecting stenosis and stratifying risk among those with CAD. Clinicians must evaluate these methods in light of their patients’ clinical p...

| description | There are numerous cardiac imaging modalities which aid in the diagnosis and management of coronary artery disease (CAD). Each modality has variable efficacy in detecting stenosis and stratifying risk among those with CAD. Clinicians must evaluate these methods in light of their patients’ clinical presentations, to choose the most appropriate imaging technique. Understanding the unique benefits and indications of each modality aids in the selection of high-value imaging. Following is a review of the available cardiac imaging methods for the identification and risk stratification of CAD. |
